We show that a Lagrangian inclusion in $\mathbb C^2$ with double transverse self-intersection points and standard open Whitney umbrellas is rationally convex. As an application we show that any compact surface $S$, except $S^2$ and $\mathbb…
We describe some sufficient conditions, under which smooth and compactly supported functions are or are not dense in the fractional Sobolev space $W^{s,p}(\Omega)$ for an open, bounded set $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{d}$. The density property…
We study convexity of image of a general multidimensional quadratic map. We split the full image into two parts by an appropriate hyperplane such that one part is compact, and formulate a sufficient condition for convexity of the compact…
In this paper we present another notion of a smooth manifold with corners and relate it to the commonly used concept in the literature. Afterwards we introduce complex manifolds with corners and show that if $M$ is a compact (respectively…
Several results on constrained spline smoothing are obtained. In particular, we establish a general result, showing how one can constructively smooth any monotone or convex piecewise polynomial function (ppf) (or any $q$-monotone ppf,…
We provide new necessary and sufficient conditons for ensuring strong quasiconvexity in the nonsmooth case and, as a consequence, we provide a proof for the differentiable case. Furthermore, we improve the quadratic growth property for…
Imposing some conditions on derivatives of the known functions, using the Fiber Contraction Theorem we prove the existence of $C^1$ solutions of a class of iterative functional equations which involves iterates of the unknown functions and…
The aim of this article is to establish new two-functions minimax inequalities extending classical results such as Simons' minimax theorem. Our results will be proved in a non-compact setting. We also prove, under general conditions, that…
Let $\mathcal C^M$ denote a Denjoy-Carleman class of $\mathcal C^\infty$ functions (for a given logarithmically-convex sequence $M = (M_n)$). We construct: (1) a function in $\mathcal C^M((-1,1))$ which is nowhere in any smaller class; (2)…
We prove some extension theorems for quaternionic holomorphic functions in the sense of Fueter. Starting from the existence theorem for the nonhomogeneous Cauchy-Riemann-Fueter Problem, we prove that an $\mathbb{H}$-valued function $f$ on a…
The authors consider the class $\F$ of normalized functions $f$ analytic in the unit disk $\ID$ and satisfying the condition $${\rm Re}\left(1+\frac{zf''(z)}{f'(z)}\right)>-\frac{1}{2},\quad z\in\D. $$ Recently, Ponnusamy et al.…
Having studied families of antiderivatives and their envelopes in the setting of classical convex analysis, we now extend and apply these notions and results in settings of abstract convex analysis. Given partial data regarding a…
In this paper, we study polynomial norms, i.e. norms that are the $d^{\text{th}}$ root of a degree-$d$ homogeneous polynomial $f$. We first show that a necessary and sufficient condition for $f^{1/d}$ to be a norm is for $f$ to be strictly…
In a recent article (2022) we proved with L. Zaj\'i\v{c}ek that if $ G\subset\R^n $ is an unbounded open convex set that does not contain a translation of a convex cone with non-empty interior, then there exist $ f:G\to\R $ and a concave…
Inspired by some iterative algorithms useful for proving the real analyticity (or the Gevrey regularity) of a solution of a linear partial differential equation with real-analytic coefficients, we consider the following question. Given a…
We show how Lasry-Lions's result on regularization of functions defined on $\mathbb{R}^n$ or on Hilbert spaces by sup-inf convolutions with squares of distances can be extended to (finite or infinite dimensional) Riemannian manifolds $M$ of…
Let M be a smooth manifold, and let O(M) be the poset of open subsets of M. Manifold calculus, due to Goodwillie and Weiss, is a calculus of functors suitable for studying contravariant functors (cofunctors) F: O(M)--> Top from O(M) to the…
A subequation on an open subset $X\subset \mathbb R^n$ is a subset $F$ of the space of $2$-jets on $X$ with certain properties. A smooth function is said to be $F$-subharmonic if all of its $2$-jets lie in $F$, and using the viscosity…
We characterize which mappings from a compact subset of $\mathbb{R}$ into the Heisenberg group can be extended to a $C^{m,\omega}$ horizontal curve for a given modulus of continuity $\omega$. We motivate our characterization by showing that…
Extension problems for polynomial valuations on different cones of convex functions are investigated. It is shown that for the classes of functions under consideration, the extension problem reduces to a simple geometric obstruction on the…
